Can anyone tell me if they have installed XP on a XPS M1330 and if there are
any issues they encountered.
Many thanks.

I have done it and explained how here in this group for about 6 weeks ago.
Ask google to find it.

thanks. i looked (again) and can't find the thread that you are talking
about using a goggle groups search... even searched by just your 'name' but
no joy. still curious to know any gotcha's, but the urgency is now gone as
we decided to buy a macbook instead which we know loads xp nicely and was
bought at a retail store today an is already up and running. who would have
thought such a thing was practical just a few years ago... it is bad enough
for microsoft that people are resisting vista, but i wonder if they ever
thought that not offering xp on machines would result in exposing people to
the mac osx (which they may find they actually prefer). will be interesting
to see if apple makes any significant impact on market share this year.
thanks again.

Christopher, are you running XP via bootcamp or similar on the
MacBook, or within Parallels or VMWare Fusion? I use Fusion and get
fairly good response on my MacBook (2GB RAM).

I much prefer the Mac OS, and many of my concerns turned out to not be
true. I thought that they would run hot, but they aren't any hotter
than my Windows laptops. The wireless reception is better than any of
my laptops too.

Next year (wait .. lol this year) Apple is going to open a store in
China. The potential is truly staggering. I don't see how Apple
could retain its monopoly on hardware though and be accepted into
foreign markets. Time will tell ..... I think Apple stock is a
growth stock with tremendous potential, even at these "inflated"
prices.

In the meantime, I am enjoying my Mac Book as my primary "on the go"
laptop.
